The Mane Event

'The Mane Event' is a district wide, STUDENT LED showcase of student work and achievements for the past school year.

Our first 'Mane Event' was held on May 16, 2016 from 5:00 to 7:30 pm in the auditorium, junior high gym and high school cafeteria. There were dozens of booths for anyone to ask questions and view projects, posters and see demonstrations.

Dorothy Jiminez created 'The Mane Event" logo.
